[BUG] Xrdb-merge breaks emojis

[orhnk]

Here is a quick DEMO:

Why this is important?

I manipulate the terminal padding whenever I enter Neovim. Which requires a xrdb-merge ~/.Xresources

[siduck]

i had no idea my st build supported emojis, i dont remember a patch for it

[orhnk]

#14 #19

are about this, but The solutions I tried didn't work.

Maybe I just don't know what should I do with libxft-bgra other than installing it

[siduck]

just dont use emojis in st! issue solved

[orhnk]

But can you explain why It is actually working?

no idea, before we needed libxft-bgra instead of libxft package, but i'm assuming bgra PR stuff has been merged into libxft repo :thinking:

I was right https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libxft/-/merge_requests/12
